Vinyl chloride monomer US Transcript
The vinyl chloride monomer report or VCM is part of a global publication that is released on a weekly basis.
ICIS collaborates with our London and Singapore offices to create a thorough and global report.
Much of US VCM production is used internally by chlor-alkalai producers, but the ICIS weekly report also coves the spot market. VCM is said to be exported to Mexico by some US suppliers.
The VCM report provides timely, accurate information on the spot market. A smaller market like VCM can really be difficult for buyers or sellers because it is a challenge to get a clear picture of prices.
The ICIS report is a great asset to our customers because it gives a credible view of where prices are together with commentary of movements within the market. That kind of comprehensive information gives the subscribers confidence as they move ahead with their business decisions.
